The figure below presents a compact representation of key lunar data for 2024. The horizontal axis is the day, the vertical axis is the hour of the day, and the colored areas indicate when the moon is above the horizon. The vertical gray bars (new Moons) and blue bars (full Moons) indicate key Moon phases.

We base the humidity comfort level on the dew point, as it determines whether perspiration will evaporate from the skin, thereby cooling the body. Lower dew points feel drier and higher dew points feel more humid. Unlike temperature, which typically varies significantly between night and day, dew point tends to change more slowly, so while the temperature may drop at night, a muggy day is typically followed by a muggy night.

Yol experiences extreme seasonal variation in the perceived humidity.

The muggier period of the year lasts for 2.8 months, from June 23 to September 16, during which time the comfort level is muggy, oppressive, or miserable at least 21% of the time. The month with the most muggy days in Yol is August, with 23.0 days that are muggy or worse.

The least muggy day of the year is February 24, when muggy conditions are essentially unheard of.

This section discusses the wide-area hourly average wind vector (speed and direction) at 10 meters above the ground. The wind experienced at any given location is highly dependent on local topography and other factors, and instantaneous wind speed and direction vary more widely than hourly averages.

The average hourly wind speed in Yol experiences mild seasonal variation over the course of the year.

The windier part of the year lasts for 4.7 months, from February 22 to July 12, with average wind speeds of more than 5.3 miles per hour. The windiest month of the year in Yol is May, with an average hourly wind speed of 6.5 miles per hour.

The calmer time of year lasts for 7.4 months, from July 12 to February 22. The calmest month of the year in Yol is December, with an average hourly wind speed of 4.1 miles per hour.

The predominant average hourly wind direction in Yol varies throughout the year.

The wind is most often from the west for 6.8 months, from March 25 to October 20, with a peak percentage of 53% on June 25. The wind is most often from the north for 2.2 months, from November 16 to January 22, with a peak percentage of 33% on January 1.

To characterize how pleasant the weather is in Yol throughout the year, we compute two travel scores.

The tourism score favors clear, rainless days with perceived temperatures between 65°F and 80°F. Based on this score, the best time of year to visit Yol for general outdoor tourist activities is from mid September to late October, with a peak score in the first week of October.

The beach/pool score favors clear, rainless days with perceived temperatures between 75°F and 90°F. Based on this score, the best times of year to visit Yol for hot-weather activities are from early May to early July and from late August to late September, with a peak score in the second week of June.

Methodology

For each hour between 8:00 AM and 9:00 PM of each day in the analysis period (1980 to 2016), independent scores are computed for perceived temperature, cloud cover, and total precipitation. Those scores are combined into a single hourly composite score, which is then aggregated into days, averaged over all the years in the analysis period, and smoothed.

Our cloud cover score is 10 for fully clear skies, falling linearly to 9 for mostly clear skies, and to 1 for fully overcast skies.

Our precipitation score, which is based on the three-hour precipitation centered on the hour in question, is 10 for no precipitation, falling linearly to 9 for trace precipitation, and to 0 for 0.04 inches of precipitation or more.

Our tourism temperature score is 0 for perceived temperatures below 50°F, rising linearly to 9 for 65°F, to 10 for 75°F, falling linearly to 9 for 80°F, and to 1 for 90°F or hotter.

Our beach/pool temperature score is 0 for perceived temperatures below 65°F, rising linearly to 9 for 75°F, to 10 for 82°F, falling linearly to 9 for 90°F, and to 1 for 100°F or hotter.

Definitions of the growing season vary throughout the world, but for the purposes of this report, we define it as the longest continuous period of non-freezing temperatures (≥ 32°F) in the year (the calendar year in the Northern Hemisphere, or from July 1 until June 30 in the Southern Hemisphere).

Temperatures in Yol are sufficiently warm year round that it is not entirely meaningful to discuss the growing season in these terms. We nevertheless include the chart below as an illustration of the distribution of temperatures experienced throughout the year.

Growing degree days are a measure of yearly heat accumulation used to predict plant and animal development, and defined as the integral of warmth above a base temperature, discarding any excess above a maximum temperature. In this report, we use a base of 50°F and a cap of 86°F.

This section discusses the total daily incident shortwave solar energy reaching the surface of the ground over a wide area, taking full account of seasonal variations in the length of the day, the elevation of the Sun above the horizon, and absorption by clouds and other atmospheric constituents. Shortwave radiation includes visible light and ultraviolet radiation.

The average daily incident shortwave solar energy experiences significant seasonal variation over the course of the year.

The brighter period of the year lasts for 2.5 months, from April 21 to July 5, with an average daily incident shortwave energy per square meter above 7.0 kWh. The brightest month of the year in Yol is May, with an average of 7.7 kWh.

The darker period of the year lasts for 3.0 months, from November 13 to February 14, with an average daily incident shortwave energy per square meter below 4.2 kWh. The darkest month of the year in Yol is December, with an average of 3.3 kWh.
